As you may have noticed in the earlier years (1935 to 1941), almost no public
advertising for television sets existed (especially for 1941). The reason was the extreme high
cost of sets, limited market size, and lack of programming to attract viewers.

We do begin to see a trickle of
USA advertising in the war years 1942-1943-1944-1945. They speak about
the promise of things to come.
